1. An apparatus for wireless communication at a user equipment (UE), comprising:
a memory; and
one or more processors, coupled to the memory, configured to:
identify a plurality of candidate UE beams for measuring a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) for a Procedure 2 (P2) resource based at least in part on synchronization signal block (SSB) measurements associated with the plurality of candidate UE beams;
identify a slot or a symbol where the CSI-RS for the P2 resource is to be scheduled;
schedule a candidate UE beam of the plurality of candidate UE beams or a serving UE beam for the slot or the symbol;
measure a spectral efficiency associated with the P2 resource; and
prepare a report that indicates one or more characteristics of the candidate UE beam or the serving UE beam.
